Student Performance Outcomes:
(Outcomes for all credit courses must
indicate that students will learn critical
thinking and will be able to apply concepts at
college level. Outcomes must be
related to items listed in Section 11.)
|
1) Using mathematical
operations of addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division, calculate whole
numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios and
proportions and percentages problems by showing
all steps. 2) Analyze, interpret, and solve
whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios and
proportions and percentages word problems that
are either one or multi-step problems by using
logical mathematical sequence of steps. 3)
Recognize and apply algorithms such as the order
of operations and exponential notation to
appropriate problems and solve them showing all
steps. 4) Recognize and apply mathematical
terminology to the interpretations and solutions
of all types of mathematical problems by
demonstrating the appropriate written
steps. 5) Analyze, interpret, and solve basic
geometry problems by using the appropriate
formulas.
